this week definitely slipped out from under me! i’ll be spending the weekend touring one of the loire valley’s celebrated châteaux and the home of the late great leonardo da vinci. i thought i’d sign off with some light and bright vignettes to contrast the rainy weather we’ve been having in tours (although i did spot a rainbow today!).

aren’t they pretty? they’ve got me daydreaming of spring flowers and sunshine bigtime. i’ll be back on monday with my first daily feature — it’s going to be a good one! have a lovely weekend everyone!
